The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3702 Everyone Goes into Seclusion
The incident of the disciples of the Ghost Painting Sect causing trouble was just a trivial episode.

After this incident, the steward approached him, sincerely apologized, and assigned two maids to follow Lin Chen around the clock to prevent similar incidents from happening again.

After staying for five or six days, Xi Yunlang took Lin Chen to meet the Palace Master of Xuefeng Palace.

The entire meeting was quite brief and rather formulaic.

Lin Chen greeted the Palace Master with the respect due to a junior. The Palace Master expressed gratitude for Lin Chen's previous rescue assistance, admired Lin Chen's extraordinary abilities, and expressed expectations for the future.

No accidents.

After meeting the Palace Master, Xi Yunlang handed over the Myriad Butterfly Flower to Lin Chen, along with a large amount of cultivation resources.

This is an apology from the Ghost Painting Sect.

Lin Chen stayed another day before taking his leave. After all, his trip was just a reconnaissance mission, and obtaining the Myriad Butterfly Flower and a large sum of cultivation resources was a completely unexpected windfall.

Lin Chen returned to the Holy Domain, and Chu Jiaxue and the others chose suitable locations to begin their seclusion.

Soon, Peach Blossom Palace sent a message, and Lin Chen rushed to Peach Blossom Palace again.

Because Peach Blossom Palace was full of women, Lin Chen, being a man, felt somewhat awkward staying in the sect. So he only stayed for two days, met the Palace Master of Peach Blossom Palace, and then took his leave.

The trip to Peach Blossom Palace went smoothly without any unexpected incidents.

Lin Chen returned to Tianhe Sect, met with the sect leader, explained his plans to go to the two palaces, and then informed the sect leader that he would soon be going into seclusion.

Simply put, it means giving someone a heads-up in advance.

I am in seclusion, please do not disturb!
Even the most important matters must wait until one has "broken through to sainthood" before being discussed.

After explaining everything, Lin Chen flashed back to the Holy Domain.

Yu Qianfan had asked Lin Chen where he had chosen to break through to the next realm, but Lin Chen replied that he had already made a choice, and Yu Qianfan did not press him further.

It is clear that Yu Qianfan no longer treats Lin Chen as a disciple of the sect, but interacts with him as an equal, giving him sufficient respect and trust.

Lin Chen gave the remaining Xuan Yang attribute Dao Spirit to Mei Shi, and asked Duanmu Wen to accompany Mei Shi to the temple and trading market to see if there was a chance to exchange for a usable Dao Spirit. As for which attribute they would get, that would depend on luck.

In short, whoever gets the redemption first goes into seclusion.

Lin Chen stayed in the Holy Domain, focusing on absorbing the pure energy from the Heavenly Demon Crystal to improve his strength.

Cultivation knows no days or months; time flows like water, and fifteen years have passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past fifteen years, Lin Chen left the Holy Domain once, to pick up Mei Shi and the others.

Mei Shi and the others circled around the eleventh district without any success, so they headed towards the tenth and ninth districts. In the Time Temple of the ninth district, they used the Xuan Yang attribute Dao Spirit to exchange for a Time attribute Dao Spirit.

After bringing the two back, Lin Chen handed the Spirit of the Great Dao to Zhen Liuxue.

Zhen Liuxue never expected that luck would fall on her head. She had originally intended to give way to Yao Xuanji and Zhuang Susu, but now that the Spirit of the Great Dao had been brought back, it would be impolite to continue to be modest.

With Lin Chen's help, Zhen Liuxue made preparations and began her seclusion. At this point, only Yao Xuanji and Zhuang Susu remained in seclusion in the entire valley. However, neither of them was idle; they each chose one of the cultivation techniques and supernatural abilities that Lin Chen had obtained from the Creation God and began practicing them.

Although they haven't yet reached sainthood, they've already cultivated their techniques and supernatural abilities, since their spiritual roots don't change like those of the Devourers.

Over the past fifteen years, Lin Chen's strength has improved rapidly. It has to be said that the Heavenly Demon Crystal is an excellent enhancement material. During this trip to the outer realms, Lin Chen obtained a large number of Heavenly Demon Crystals, and now his cultivation is incredibly enjoyable.

One journey to another realm is worth more than a thousand or ten thousand years of others' busy work.

Fifteen years later, Nalan Wushuang was the first to break through the barrier and successfully advance to the level of a Metal-attribute Saint.

It must be said that Nalan Wushuang's innate Dao physique gives her a huge advantage in cultivation. As long as she has enough cultivation resources, her cultivation speed is incredibly fast.

To some extent, Nalan Wushuang's talent is similar to that of the Celestial Clan; both have no bottlenecks and can improve smoothly as long as they have resources and enough time to cultivate.

Compared to them, Lin Chen and others faced far greater difficulties in their advancement. Each advancement involved a tribulation, and each tribulation was a matter of life and death. A slight misstep could cost them their lives, and they might be completely annihilated by the lightning tribulation.

"Congratulations, Nalan, you're the first one to emerge from seclusion."

Nalan Wushuang looked at Lin Chen waiting beside her, a look of joy on her face: "Am I the first one?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Yes, after all, you are born with a Dao physique, which is something we can't compare to."

Nalan Wushuang laughed and said, "It's all thanks to you finding so many cultivation resources for me. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy to improve."

Nalan Wushuang is right. For cultivators, the ratio of finding or earning cultivation resources to the time spent cultivating can be ten to one, or even a hundred to one.

Once a pill is consumed, it may only take a few days to be fully absorbed, and the strength will increase very quickly. However, earning this pill is by no means an easy task.

Lin Chen has experienced various crises and opportunities along the way, always fighting and grabbing. Although each time was extremely dangerous, the final gains were always astonishing.

Lin Chen led the way all the way. Although Chu Jiaxue and the others were exceptionally talented and even valued by their sects, they still couldn't keep up with Lin Chen's pace. It was only through Lin Chen's various methods and support that they were able to reach the peak of Quasi-Saint and then the Saint realm.

Once everyone has attained sainthood, they will be able to help Lin Chen.

Perhaps they are slightly weaker than Lin Chen, but each of them has different attributes and cultivates different supernatural abilities, which is an effect that Lin Chen, even with his greater strength, cannot achieve.

The legendary thief Sun Yixiao can steal things from other people's spatial rings without anyone noticing, and Zhen Liuxue can reverse time. These are abilities that even Lin Chen, no matter how strong he is, cannot achieve.

Lin Chen will be staying in the Celestial Realm for a long time to come. He plans to use the Crouching Dragon Sect as a foundation to build a new force that belongs to him and everyone. Simply put, he wants to give everyone a new home.

In the Celestial Realm, the Celestial Race looks down on other races with equality. Lin Chen plans to start building his own power from the chaotic Sixth District. One day, he will be able to appear openly and legitimately, and the other Celestial Races will no longer look at him with contempt, but with awe in their eyes.

When you're alive, you should always try to make yourself as comfortable as possible.

For the past fifteen years, Lin Chen and the others have been in seclusion, improving themselves. Everyone is happy and full of anticipation, but the only one who is unhappy is the Creation God.

Lin Chen was only one Saint-grade Phoenix Blood away from reshaping his divine body, but he just gave up on the spot!
Are you angry?
